The emergence of the 2D magnetic semiconductors is opening the door to the design and fabrication of novel vdW spintronic, [1]}, [2]}, [3]}, [4]}, [5]} magneto-optical[6]} and magneto-(opto)electronic[7]}, [8]} devices.
In view of the incorporation of 2D magnetic materials in vdW devices it is important to know and understand the properties of their band-spin texture and the mechanisms that control them —in order also to manipulate them. General symmetry-based rules serving as guidelines on the shape of spin textures in the BZ of magnetic materials would also be helpful.
So far, however, the band-spin textures in momentum space of magnetic materials with inherent SOC, and in particular of ferromagnets, have remained largely unexplored. Only recently have a few investigations started to examine magnetic-order effects on the spin texture of some antiferromagnets,[9]}, [10]}, [11]} while other studies have focused on surface/interface states and indicated Rashba effects and helical spin texture at ferromagnet surfaces/interfaces.[12]}, [13]}, [14]}
